BUTTERFLY ORIGAMI
WHAT YOU NEED:
✚✚
Origami paper or colourful paper cut into a square
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Fold your paper in half to create a mountain fold.
2. Open out and fold in half again this time the opposite way.
3. Open out and fold along both diagonals making two more
mountain folds.
4. Flip it over so the coloured side is facing down.
5. Bring the sides in to meet at the centre.
6. Fold the centre folds in and collapse down to make a
triangle. This is called a waterbomb base.
7. Fold the top layer of both corners up to meet in the centre.
8. Flip it over and lift the bottom corner up.
BREAKOUTS
9. You want to fold it past the top edge so the tip of the
triangle extends over the top.
10. Flatten the centre but not the edges of the crease.
11. Fold the tip of the triangle over and crease.
12. To finish fold the butterfly in half to shape it.
All you have to do now is find a place to display your origami
butterfly and enjoy.
